Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
But just as Josie Meyer was worrying about what to do, someone placed a hand on her shoulder. The young girl was frantic and worried that she had run into a bad guy, but her heart gradually calmed down when she lifted her head and saw Finn Taylor. For some reason, he put her at ease.
“Come on now. Let’s not create a scene. Let the young ladies go.” Finn Taylor gave the man one last chance. After all, he was benevolent.
“Who the f*ck are you? Are they your wives?”
‘Wife? Are you insulting my wife? How interesting. In the past three years, I’ve never tolerated anyone who insulted my wife.’
“Are you done watching?” Finn Taylor said all of a sudden.
Following that, Andre Cavill whistled. Suddenly, dozens of bodyguards surrounded the bald man.
“A-Andre Cavill, what are you trying to do?”
Melvin Lowe had never seen such a sight and was starting to panic.
“You offended someone you shouldn’t have.” Andre Cavill was direct, and the bodyguards rushed up as soon as he finished his words.
As the bald man was dragged away by the bodyguards, the two young girls were left gawking, especially Josie Meyer.
She didn’t know how to feel. After all, Finn Taylor had indeed saved her this time. Yet, she didn’t want to admit to it because it would mean bowing down to him. ‘I’m a goddess. There is no way I’ll lower my pride to thank someone like this.’
“Mr. Taylor, thank you so much. If not for you, something might’ve happened to Josie and me.”
Michelle Yeller thanked the man sincerely, but her friend grabbed her. “Why are you thanking him? Have you not gotten a clear picture of him by now? Look, this is where he spends his time. His friends are all so barbaric. You better not fall for him. You’ll only be courting death if you do that.”
Josie Meyer’s words stumped her friend, as well as Finn Taylor. ‘I saved her, yet she still says such things.’
Just then, Finn Taylor received a message on his phone. “Hello, Master Peregrine. I have the four guardians. Come to this address.”
His brows furrowed into a frown. ‘Is this a joke or a prank? But that’s unlikely. Few people even know about my identity as Master Peregrine. Could they really be in trouble?’
Finn Taylor tried making a call to Hunter Sullivan, but he couldn’t reach the latter. He then tried calling the others but was met with the same result.
He couldn’t connect to a single one of them. ‘It seems like something has really gone wrong.’
Finn Taylor turned to Andre Cavill. “Send this lady home. If you dare to send that one home, I’ll make sure to break your leg.”
With that, he turned to leave.
‘This…’ Andre Cavill felt slightly awkward. ‘They are neighbors, and Finn Taylor had even said that the two ladies are roommates. However, he makes it seem as though one of them is a friend while the other is an enemy.’
“I’ll send you home, Miss.” Andre Cavill invited Michelle Yeller out.
“About that, Mr. Taylor must be kidding. Could you bring Josie along?”
Andre Cavill helplessly pointed at his own leg. “I think you had better spare my leg.”
Michelle Yeller pretended to get angry. “Then, I’m not going either.”
“That’s not up to you, Miss. Mr. Taylor has already given me instructions. My head will roll if I don’t do it well.”
‘His head will roll?’ Both Josie Meyer and Michelle Yeller were shocked. ‘Who is Finn Taylor? Why is he so impressive?’
“But…” Before Michelle Yeller could finish her sentence, Andre Cavill’s men had already dragged her into the car.
Finn Taylor had asked him to send the young girl home safely.
As for Josie Meyer, she was left fuming. ‘That b*stard Timothy Taylor! Is he a man? How could he just leave me in the lurch like this?’
…
However, Finn Taylor had no time to care about her at that moment because the four guardians had been kidnapped. He knew full well just how powerful all four of them were, so who could’ve possibly kidnapped them just like that?
Following the address he had been given, Finn Taylor arrived at a lake, only to see Levi Taylor sitting there.
Beside him was a Thai.
It looked like they were here to settle it with a duel.
“So you’re the one who kidnapped Hunter Sullivan and the others.”
Levi Taylor yawned. “You arrived earlier than I expected. I was even afraid that you wouldn’t show up.”
‘It seems like Levi Taylor is indeed the one who kidnapped the four guardians.’
“Why did you kidnap them?”
“No reason really. I just want to get to know the so-called Master Peregrine. Tai, make him kneel.”
The man beside Levi Taylor walked forward and prepared himself.
“Hold on. Let me see them.”
Levi Taylor casually clapped, and the four guardians were dragged out. They were all bound and gagged, unable to speak or move.
“These are your four guardians—how weak. They wouldn’t have even gotten a chance to train with me.” Levi Taylor spoke arrogantly, trampling Finn Taylor under his feet.
“Levi Taylor, this is between us. Let them go.”
“Hehe. Timothy Taylor, don’t test your luck. Do you think I’ll just do as you say? Go on, Tai.”
The Thai man charged forward. Because he had been trained in Muay Thai since he was young, he was already used to numbing all senses so that he felt nothing.
“Argh!” The man charged forward as though he was ready to give up his life.
Finn Taylor simply dodged instead of returning any punches.
Since Muay Thai fighters loved to inflict the greatest amount of pain possible to their opponents, Finn Taylor was going to leverage that and use Tai’s strategy against himself.
Tai was still throwing punches, and Finn Taylor continued dodging them.
The latter was trying to build up power.. Given the amount of strength Tai was using, it wouldn’t be enough to strike himself down.
